This rugby shirt offers a refined take on vintage sportswear, cut from densely knitted cotton for a substantial feel. The tailored design, featuring a contrasting collar and ribbed hem, makes it suitable for both casual and tailored outfits. With a slightly trimmer body and higher armhole, this shirt strikes the perfect balance between comfort and elegance. Ideal for layering or dressing up, it fits true to size, with the option to size up for a more relaxed fit.
From the brand: The rugby shirt has steadily become a staple of our collections, and this time around is no different. Cut from a densely knitted cotton, our idiosyncratic take on an enduring bit of vintage sportswear has a substantial feeling to it, as well as a certain tactility.
For our rugbies, we created a pattern inspired by our shirts – the collar in particular takes its cues from our ‘English Classic’ style – by working closely with our shirtmakers to create a fit that is a bit less baggy and sporty, and more refined and elegant.
The resulting pattern was one with a slightly trimmer body and a higher armhole, making the shirts perfect for wearing with tailoring, unlike their more traditionally shaped cousins.
